Black Hole Physics Basic Concepts and New Developments

PDF | English | 26MB

The present work covers practically all aspects of black hole physics and its
astrophysical applications. Among the topics treated in depth are: space-time of
stationary black holes, general theory of black holes, black hole perturbations,
black hole numerics, black hole electrodynamics, black holes in unified theories
of gravity, quantum black holes, final states of evaporating black holes and the
information loss puzzle. Special attention is paid to the role of black holes in
astrophysics and observational evidence of black hole existence. Many exotic
subjects linked with black holes, such as white holes, wormholes, and time
machines are discussed in detail. Numerous appendices cover mathematical aspects
of general relativity and black holes and quantum field theory in curved
spacetime. This makes the book practically self-contained. Extensive references
provide the reader with a guide to the literature in this field. Audience: This
book will be of interest to researchers and postgraduate students whose work
involves relativity and gravitation, statistical physics, thermo-dynamics,
active galactic nuclei and stellar physics.
